How do I create a custom users report in Analytics (new)?

As a Canvas Catalog admin, you can search and filter user data to generate custom reports in an updated and improved analytics interface in Analytics (new).  

Notes:

  • The functionality shown in this lesson is for the Analytics (new) interface. Through June 30, 2023, analytics data and reporting continue to display in the old format in the Analytics (original) and Reports pages.
  • Reports and Analytics (original) tabs are scheduled for removal on June 30, 2023.  If you have automations set up in the old versions, please adjust to the new version by June 30th to ensure a seamless experience.
  • Enrollments that are not added to a course through the Catalog enrollment page are not included in catalog analytics.
